    Hot on "the scene"

    Clottey says if he's unable to secure a rematch against Cotto that he would like to fight PTP. I'd love to see it get made. :bbb

    Williams-Wright part 2? Does Clottey get beaten as badly?

    No way Clottey beats Paul. They should fight, last year Williams was talking that he wanted Clottey's belt. But I don't know if at this point Clottey would interest Paul since there would be no real money in the fight and it wouldn't be for a belt. Clottey should try to get Berto but I don't think Andre's promoters would let that happen.

    He'll be in it for a while then fade late. If he could hold his stamina he'd have a chance still a good fight.

    Dibella was on OTG earlier and said that he wouldn't put Berto in with Clottey. He actually went on to suggest that Clottey should move up to 154 and challenge PTP.

    I don't get it...how are you a champion yet it's openly put out there that you won't fight certain fighters? This is why it's hard for me to take Berto as a legit fighter, if they were going to this then why even let him collect a belt in the first place?

    Dibella's excuse was that Clottey isn't a draw and would rather put Berto in with Mosley or Cotto is given the opportunity. He also said that if a fight against either of those 2 guys couldn't come together then a Collazo rematch would be explored although it would be a difficult negotiation considering HBO is offering less money for a rematch then they offered for the first fight.

    Clottey has a better chance at 47 than 54. Maybe he can win 4 rounds at 47.
